Map

Description

This is an example of a hand drawn map, prepared by a Block Mobilization Coordinator (BMC). This particular map is of the block of Bhopura in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. It shows the locations of construction sites, areas where nomads are living and slums. Residents of these locations are transient, and the BMC has to make sure they are included in the microplan for polio immunization, routine immunization and that they have access to services. The map also marks villages, roads and the health centre. It is updated by the BMC as new sites appear.
